Expansion modules for the configurable control systems PNOZmulti 2

Control systems – Flexibly expandable

Have you selected the appropriate base unit for your application? Depending on the requirement, various expansion modules can be docked onto the base unit of PNOZmulti 2: For example: I/O modules, motion monitoring modules and link modules. Large plant and machinery can be implemented by using link modules to connect decentralised modules PDP67. The motion monitoring modules ensure safe monitoring of your drives. You can now easily adapt the system to your application.

You can easily assemble the hardware configuration in the PNOZmulti Configurator. The software tool supports you with positioning the modules. The expansion modules are connected to the left or right of the base unit, depending on type.

Benefits to you

Short time to market because inputs and outputs are freely configurable with the software tool PNOZmulti Configurator

Expansion modules – For particular requirements

The safe motion monitoring modules for the configurable control systems PNOZmulti 2 ensure that your drives are safely monitored. That makes your plant and machinery even more productive! The following functions are available:

The safe motion monitoring modules are easily parameterised using the software tool PNOZmulti Configurator with certified software blocks. An independent module program (mIQ) is created for this and is executed on the module. This brings considerable benefits for you, the user: For example, fine-grained configuring of several zones for monitoring – such as speed or rotational speed – is possible. These are then run locally on the expansion module. This reduces the load on the base unit.

PNOZmulti 2 – With decentralised expansion

The control systems PNOZmulti 2 can be expanded using link modules for decentralisation and for safe communication between multiple base units. You can now easily implement safety functions on more complex plant and machinery!

Decentrally in the field: The PDP link module PNOZ m EF PDP Link serves as the interface for the decentralised modules PDP67 (to protection type IP67) to the base unit. The signals from the connected sensors are directly forwarded to the base unit from the field for further processing. With up to 16 PDP67 modules on one base unit the number of sensors that can be connected increases by 64. This is what an economical solution looks like!

Complex tasks – a team effort: The multi-link module PNOZ m EF Multi Link enables the straightforward, safe data exchange between several base units. Thanks to the modular design of PNOZmulti 2, you can achieve various topologies on one base unit with up to four link modules. As a result, you can connect several PNOZmulti units to implement safety functions for complex plant and machinery.
